SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Plans, decisions, and ideas often contain hidden assumptions and unresolved dependencies. This Skill stress-tests your thinking by relentlessly interviewing you about every aspect of a plan until a shared understanding is reached. ## Core Features & Use Cases - One-Question-at-a-Time Interrogation: Asks a single focused question per turn, walking down each branch of the decision tree without overwhelming you. - Recommended Answers: Provides a recommended answer alongside each question so you can accept, reject, or refine it. - Fact Lookup vs. Decision Ownership: Looks up verifiable facts from the environment (filesystem, tools) itself, while reserving all decisions for you. - Use Case: Before starting a migration project, activate this Skill to be grilled on scope, rollback strategy, dependencies, and timelines until every decision is explicitly resolved. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to grill you about your plan, for example by saying: grill me on my plan to migrate our database to a new provider.

FAQPage Schema
How do I stress-test a plan or idea with an AI assistant?▼

Activate the grilling skill and present your plan or idea. The assistant interviews you one question at a time, walking each branch of the decision tree and offering a recommended answer for every question until a shared understanding is reached.

How does the grilling skill ask questions?▼

It asks exactly one question per turn and waits for your feedback before continuing. Asking multiple questions at once is avoided because it is bewildering, and each question comes with a recommended answer you can accept or challenge.

Will the assistant look up facts or ask me everything?▼

Facts that can be found by exploring the environment, such as the filesystem or available tools, are looked up directly rather than asked. Only decisions are put to you, and the assistant waits for your answer on each one.

When does the assistant start acting on the plan?▼

It does not act until you explicitly confirm that a shared understanding has been reached. The interview phase resolves dependencies between decisions one by one before any execution begins.

When should I not use one-question-at-a-time grilling?▼

Avoid it for trivial decisions or time-critical tasks where a full interview adds unnecessary overhead. It is designed for consequential plans where unresolved assumptions and decision dependencies carry real risk.
